Just chanced upon it when i was in the area. Worth it to stop by and visit esp for families with kids. Nice view of the sunset!
My husband tried extracying akoya pearl from its shell and turn into a necklace. I would say it was a lovely experience.
Visiting enoshima aquarium is mandatory, especially if you are a family trip. The aquarium is not too big but you can see the sea animals that are quite complete. The ticket price is around 2800 yen is quite worth it. You can see sunset and mt.fuji from the back area of the cafe
Super cool aquarium! Plenty of stuff to see. Only down side is that there wasn't a lot of English translations of signs. It would have been great to be able to actually read about some of the animals. They at least had the animal names in English.
It was awesome! There's lots to do and see, the jellyfish display was probably my favorite...but there were 2 capybara. seaturtles and a place you could touch fish if that's your kind of thing. I loved the little teddy lottery they had, I think it was whales, dolphins or otter plushies you could win. Overall, it was amazing but very very busy. Perhaps because we went during summer of what I now know is a tourist town, but it was very busy.
